Frequently Asked Questions

• How much do solar panels cost?

  The cost of installing solar panels varies based on several factors, mainly the number of panels needed to meet your energy requirements. Each home or business has unique energy consumption patterns so that pricing can differ.

  When we provide an estimate, we consider factors such as your energy usage, roof structure, shading issues, and local energy rates. We then create a system tailored to your needs, covering all your energy use or reducing high-cost power during peak hours.

  For homeowners, we offer flexible payment options, including $0 down with manageable monthly leases and various financing choices that don’t require an upfront payment.

• How long does it take to recoup the cost of solar panels?

  The time it takes to recoup your solar investment can vary, depending on system cost, energy usage, and available incentives. Most Chandler homeowners anticipate paying off their solar system in 7 to 12 years. The efficiency of your panels, utility rates, financing options, and eligibility for tax credits or rebates all influence the payback period. A professional installer can provide a detailed estimate tailored to your specific circumstances. Contact Sun Valley Solar Solutions for a personalized, no-obligation payback estimate.

Solar panels can reduce your monthly energy bills, and federal tax credits can cover up to 30% of your solar installation costs, including batteries. Converting Chandler's abundant sunshine into clean energy is a smart choice for long-term savings.

• What is the lifespan of solar panels?

  Solar panels are designed to last, usually with a 25-year warranty. However, many systems can keep producing electricity for 30 years or more, even though their efficiency may decrease gradually. Most panels will continue to provide power even after the warranty period expires.

  In Chandler, you can use the federal solar tax credit, which covers 30% of your system’s total cost. Arizona also offers a state tax credit of up to $1,000 and exempts solar systems from sales tax.

  Moreover, if you install a solar battery with a capacity of 3kWh or more, you may also qualify for a 30% federal tax credit on energy storage systems.
